I rather like the solemn faces in these old formal photographs

and wonder what the people were thinking

... probably, " Oh do get on with it ! "

Thank you for the challenge & look forward to seeing what everyone else did

  15. He He ...yes I love all the different takes on the theme.

    I guess I am having fun but we are our own hardest critics - I see what everyone else produces digitally or with techniques I don't have any knowlege of and feel like a total amateur.

  27. Like everyone else, I think the buttons are wonderful. I agree that old photos are funny in how placid the expressions are. Sad times. nothing to smile about. :) All this bickering over fruit!
